hornbill mania

MY MOOD IS FAIRLY GOOD TODAY. I SLEPT AT 4 AM.


I WOKE UP TO FIND A VOICE MAIL MESSAGE FROM MY PIANO TEACHER SAYING THAT MY PIANO CLASS IS CANCELED TODAY. HAHAHA GOOD GOOD GOOD. SHE HAD TO ATTEND A SEMINAR.


THE WEATHER IS OKAY IF YOU DON'T GO OUT OF THE HOUSE. ITS SO FREAKING HOT. NO RAIN. PLANTS ALSO WILT ALREADY. SCHIZOPHRENIC WEATHER. THE STILL AIR, EVEN IF THERE IS A SLIGHT WIND ITS WARM AIR.


I'VE DECIDED TO USE THE HORNBILL AS ONE OF THE SUBJECTS FOR MY PORTFOLIO. I MIGHT CHANGE MY MIND BUT I THINK VARIETY IS GOOD. GIVES ME THE CHANCE TO PRACTICE MANY DIFFERENT TYPES OF SKILLS.
SEARCHED FOR HORNBILLS. RIGHT NOW IS HORNBILL MANIA. I DON'T KNOW WHY I CHOSE THE HORNBILL. NO ONE REALLY TALKS ABOUT THE HORNBILL. I MEAN YOU ALWAYS COME ACROSS PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT LIONS,TIGERS,TURTLES BUT NEVER HORNBILL.

I GUESS I GOT THIS SO CALLED 'INSPIRATION' FROM A TISSUE BOX. =)

YOU KNOW THE PREMIER TISSUE BOX. THEY HAVE 4 TYPES...TIGER,ORANGUTAN,AROWANA AND THE HORNBILL. I WANTED TO DRAW THE TIGER BUT TOO DAMN HARD. SO I GUESS HORNBILL IS THE NEXT THING ON MY LIST. ITS KINDA INTERESTING. WEIRD LOOKING BIRD. IN A GOOD WAY OF COURSE.

I FOUND A LOT OF PICS BUT LAZY TO POST THEM ALL. I REMEMBER SEEING A HORNBILL AT A ZOO DURING A SCHOOL TRIP IN MY KINDY YEARS!

LOOK AT THE THEM. I FIND THEM QUITE MAJESTIC. LIKE ROYALTY. NOT ALL HORNBILLS ARE LIKE THAT. SOME ARE JUST PLAIN LOOKING. THE GREAT HORNBILL AND FEW MORE OTHER SPECIES ARE THE ONES THAT LOOKS LIKE ROYALTY.

OF COURSE THE MALE SPECIES LOOKS BETTER THAN THE FEMALE. SAME CONCEPT AS THE PEACOCKS. THEY MALE'S NEED TO SHOW OFF THEIR BEAUTY TO THE LADIES!

TOODLES~
